TCBHIWAF Chapter 11
by VolareChapter 11: Do You Often Dream of Me?
On the deck of the cruise ship.
A tall girl quickly weaved through the crowd on the deck, her face delicate and her eyes searching anxiously, looking around as she walked.
“Qianqian, wait a moment.” Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
Shen Qianqian stopped and turned around, seeing Gu Chennan quickly catching up.
She couldn’t help but pout, her face full of displeasure.
“Didn’t you say Brother Yu was on the Royal Cruise? Why haven’t I seen him?”
Gu Chennan said with certainty, “He’s definitely here. When registering identity information for the cruise, I personally saw Lin Yu and his friend Ye Xingchen’s names on the list, absolutely no mistake.”
Shen Qianqian frowned slightly, her tone tinged with doubt, “Then where is he? Could he have disappeared into thin air?”
“This… I’m also puzzled.” Gu Chennan scratched his head, his face full of puzzled expressions.
Shen Qianqian bit her lip tightly, her eyes showing a determination to not give up until she reached her goal.
“Keep looking, I must see him today no matter what.”
With that, Shen Qianqian once again plunged into the bustling crowd, Gu Chennan closely following behind, they carefully searched every corner of the cruise ship…
The sunlight gradually turned orange-yellow, the sun slowly setting in the west…
An alarm clock rang, and Ye Xingchen was the first to wake up. Realizing what it was, he immediately turned off the alarm.
Seeing that Lin Yu was still asleep, he first called to have dinner delivered to the room.
Before long, the doorbell rang. Ye Xingchen got up to open the door, took the meal delivered by the waiter, and gently placed it on the table.
He went upstairs again to take a look at Lin Yu on the bed, only to see him turn over and continue sleeping.
Ye Xingchen smiled helplessly, walked to the bedside and sat down, quietly watching him for a while.
Lin Yu slept peacefully, sunlight shining through the gaps in the curtains, falling on his face.
His face was as exquisitely carved, and his fair skin seemed to radiate a faint golden glow in the warm sunlight.
Thick and slender eyelashes formed a small shadow in the sunlight, trembling slightly with each breath.
The straight bridge of his nose outlined the perfect lines of his face, and his lips were slightly upturned, with a faint gentle smile.
A few strands of hair, dyed golden by the sunlight, casually fell on his forehead, adding a touch of laziness and charm.
His sleeping face was as beautiful as a painting. Looking at this “Yu”, the corners of Ye Xingchen’s mouth unconsciously rose, and the love in his heart grew stronger and stronger, as if it was about to overflow.
Ye Xingchen couldn’t help but stretch out a finger and carefully trace the contours of his face, from that smooth forehead, down the straight bridge of his nose, gently across the slightly upturned corners of his lips, to the beautifully curved jawline.
Lin Yu felt a slight itch, frowned slightly, and then opened his eyes, looking at Ye Xingchen close at hand, he felt as if he was dreaming.
He reached out and grabbed his collar, pulling Ye Xingchen down. Caught off guard, he fell directly onto Lin Yu’s body.
A look of astonishment flashed in Ye Xingchen’s eyes, his heart skipped a beat from his action.
“Xingchen, why are you in my dream again.” Only in his dreams did he dare to be so bold and reckless.
Realizing that he still thought he was dreaming, Ye Xingchen was amused by his dazed state and couldn’t help but laugh.
Hearing Ye Xingchen’s laughter, Lin Yu realized that something was wrong and quickly got up in a panic.
“I… I thought I was dreaming, don’t mind.”
Ye Xingchen looked at him with a smile, “I don’t mind, do you often dream of me?”
Lin Yu’s face instantly turned red, his eyes darting around, not daring to look at Ye Xingchen.
How should he answer?
After a moment, Lin Yu stammered, “N-not often, just occasionally…” As he spoke, he lowered his head even further.
Ye Xingchen, however, did not let him off, and leaned closer to him, saying, “Occasionally is still something, tell me quickly, what do you dream about me?”
Lin Yu became even more flustered, and quickly waved his hands.
“It’s just some ordinary things, nothing special.”
Ye Xingchen raised an eyebrow, smiling mischievously, “Really? I don’t believe it.”
Lin Yu changed the subject, saying, “I’m hungry.”
Ye Xingchen stopped pursuing the dream, “Let’s go, I just had someone send dinner, let’s eat and then go to the banquet.”
They came to the table and sat down, beginning their meal.
While eating, Ye Xingchen always took care of Lin Yu, knowing what he liked and didn’t like to eat.
Just as Lin Yu was about to put a delicate pastry into his mouth, Ye Xingchen quickly stopped him.
At the corner of the pastry, there was a tiny bit of crushed peanut, almost imperceptible if not carefully examined.
“Yu, there are peanuts in here, you’re allergic to peanuts.”
Lin Yu took a closer look and noticed the almost negligible crushed peanut.
“I didn’t notice.”
Ye Xingchen gently took the pastry, carefully placing it aside.
Then, he gently selected another pastry that Lin Yu liked and placed it in front of him, “Eat this.”
Looking at Ye Xingchen’s concerned look, Lin Yu felt a warmth in his heart.
After dinner, the two returned to the room to change clothes.
Lin Yu directly took a white suit and put it on, making him look even more elegant and pure, like a handsome young nobleman.
Ye Xingchen wore a black suit, the tailored cut making him appear even more composed and dignified, with extraordinary charm.
After the two were ready, they walked together towards the elevator. The elevator rose steadily, Lin Yu looked at the constantly jumping numbers, and said softly, “It’s on the 22nd Floor.”
Ye Xingchen nodded slightly, his eyes always fixed on Lin Yu, with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
After a while, the elevator “dinged” and arrived at the 22 Floor.
The doors slowly opened, and the two walked out side by side, heading towards the banquet hall.
As soon as they stepped into the banquet hall, the two were attracted by the lively scene inside.
Brilliant lights intertwined and twinkled, and melodious music flowed through the air. People gathered in groups of three or five, with constant laughter.
The ladies were dressed in gorgeous gowns, while the gentlemen were in suits and ties, all radiant.
Lin Yu walked to a table, looked around, and then took a glass of red wine.
He gently shook the glass, the red wine swirling elegantly along the walls of the glass. He glanced at it and took a small sip.
“Hmm, not bad.”
Seeing this, Ye Xingchen also took a glass. He tasted it and said, “It’s okay.”
At this time, a young and beautiful woman wearing a gold, form-fitting evening dress came over to chat with them.
Lin Yu responded politely, while Ye Xingchen stood aside, frowning and not saying a word.
The woman seemed quite interested in Lin Yu, constantly finding topics to talk about, and Lin Yu responded politely.
Then, her gaze fell directly on Lin Yu, and she stated her purpose.
“Handsome, you’re so handsome, just my type. I wonder if I could add you on WeChat?”
As soon as these words came out, Ye Xingchen stared straight at Lin Yu, unconsciously tightening his grip on the glass of red wine in his hand.
Lin Yu refused without thinking, “Sorry, it’s not very convenient.”
The woman was immediately embarrassed, her face turned ugly, and she muttered as she walked away, “What are you pretending to be, can’t even add someone on WeChat.”
Hearing this, Ye Xingchen originally wanted to step forward to argue, but Lin Yu directly stopped him.
“No need to bother.”
Ye Xingchen frowned, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.
“How rude.”
Lin Yu smiled, comforting him, “Don’t let her ruin our mood.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you.” Ye Xingchen looked at him, his heart full of love and admiration.
